  • Patent number: 12235980
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing group images for distribution are described. Images corresponding to a group may be and sometimes are modified differently prior to being supplied to members of the group than when being supplied to entities which are not members of the group to which the image corresponds. Images of group members maybe and sometimes are replaced. Group members can provide an image to be used in the replacement process so that multiple group images which include a similar user determined image of the individual. This can make it appear that the same individual is present in multiple different group images while still not providing visual details of the actual individual in the group images.

  • Patent number: 12237023
    Abstract: For a nonvolatile (NV) storage media such as NAND media that is written by a program and program verify operation, the system can determine an expected number of SSPC (selective slow programming convergence) cells for a page of cells for specific conditions of the page. The system can perform program verify with a first wordline (WL) select voltage for SSPC cell detection for a first write of the page to detect the expected number of SSPC cells. Based on the determined expected number of SSPC cells, the system can set a boost voltage to capture an expected number of SSPC cells during the program verify operation. The system performs program verify for subsequent writes to the page with a higher WL select voltage, to perform program verify for standard cells and then SSPC program verify with the boost voltage determined from the first write.

  • Patent number: 12236348
    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described for deep neural network (DNN) processing for a user equipment-coordination set (UECS). A network entity selects (910) an end-to-end (E2E) machine-learning (ML) configuration that forms an E2E DNN for processing UECS communications. The network entity directs (915) each device of multiple devices participating in an UECS to form, using at least a portion of the E2E ML configuration, a respective sub-DNN of the E2E DNN that transfers the UECS communications through the E2E communication, where the multiple devices include at least one base station, a coordinating user equipment (UE), and at least one additional UE. The network entity receives (940) feedback associated with the UECS communications and identifies (945) an adjustment to the E2E ML configuration. The network entity then directs at least some of the multiple devices participating in an UECS to update the respective sub-DNN of the E2E DNN based on the adjustment.
